More Anesthesia Than Average
Remember when we said that redheads have a higher pain tolerance? That probably explains why one study showed that redheaded females required about 19-20% (at least) more anesthesia in order to be sedated as opposed to other people. The mutation that causes the higher pain tolerance is the likely reason why, and is also why redheads tend to require more topical anesthetics like Lidocaine and Novocaine to feel the same effect as others with less of the anesthetics.
